Spicy Chicken with Coleslaw

Cinnamon and Chicken..?? Of course !

I have made this recipe {found in one of my oldest scrap books and adapted by me} with the Coleslaw and once, only once, served the chicken without. The Chicken and the Coleslaw just seem to work better together than each on it's own.

The presentation is also striking when the Chicken is served ON TOP of the Coleslaw. I served this dish together with my Morrocan Butternut and a slice or two of French Bread.

I used an inside health griller to cook the Chicken, but you can use a griddle pan or whatever you use to braai {BBQ} meat.
